What is PacXpert Technology?
PacXpert™ Packaging Technology
PacXpert™ Packaging Technology, from The Dow Chemical Company (also known as “Dow”), bridges the gap between flexible and rigid packaging. This innovative flexible stand-up pouch offers the same durability as rigid packaging but offers savings in areas such as transportation, warehouse storage, and displaying on retail shelves. As the product is used, the packaging folds over itself, further optimizing storage space, and consumes minimal space in a landfill after use.
PacXpert has earned numerous packaging awards for its unique ergonomics, durability, and shelf appeal. With the addition of dual handles, as well as the placement and angle of the seals, PacXpert won’t burst or break during transport. The gusseted corners offer durability and secure handling. This packaging also displays four sides of advertising space and custom print options, as well as the option for a transparent window to reveal the product inside.
